Such a very special young girl - who we fought so hard to keep here with us, but sadly have had to let to go to Rainbow Bridge

Firstly may I welcome you to the website of Cuckmere Golden Retrievers.

My dogs are foremost our family pets. They live with us in the house as part of our family and our lives revolve around them! They all regularly attend the local Dog Training Club, which they all thoroughly enjoy and of which I am now Vice Chairperson plus I also take the puppy classes.

We occasionally attend small local dog shows - just for fun at the moment, although I have taken our latest puppy into a few competitive shows and we recently were awarded our first rosette! I would also, at some stage, like to train the dogs for what they were originally bred for - picking up game.

We occasionally breed from the girls and will only do so when we feel they are mature enough and we have sufficient time and energy to devote to raising a litter.

My dogs have all been hip-scored and have well below the breed average scores - the current average now being 18.  To comply with the Kennel Clubs Accredited Breeder scheme’s recommendations - my dogs will, in future have their elbows scored too.  All bitches and our stud dog that are used for breeding also have current clear eye certificates - March 2008.

My aim is twofold a) to produce healthy, sound, good quality puppies with temperament being my main priority and b) to find them the best possible permanent homes, whether it be a working, show or pet home, where they will be happy and loved for the rest of their lives.

I am a member of The Golden Retriever Club - The Golden Retriever Club and the Southern Golden Retriever Society.

I hope you enjoy this site.  Please feel free to contact me at any time.
